[Heartfelt]

Due to the hostility in response to disagreeing in some threads lately...
Disclaimers: I am not crticizing her nor her voice. I am not argueing the validity of the Avant line or of the CV-12 in professional recording.

Point:
When I listen to "Love Story", which I think is a great song, I hear something that is unsual to me in most vocals I listen to. There seems to be a buildup in the high mids that comes in and out, through the song.

Questions:
Do you hear it?

Where abouts in the freq-range DO you hear it?

What do you "think" the cause is? (Is it typical of young ladies' voices? Is it the mic? Is it a mis-match of her voice and the mic?)

If it is typical of young ladies, what tools or methods do you use in processing? I seem to remember Pensado using the C1 with a particular frequency on C Aguilera's voice. Are there others?

This is an attempt to bounce off you guys something I think I hear and get to a working understanding.

Thanks for your insight and/or opinions,
Rob
